* Praise ye the LORD . O give thanks unto the LORD ; for he is good : for his mercy endureth for ever . * Who can utter the mighty acts of the LORD ? who can shew forth all his praise ? * Blessed are they that keep judgment , and he that doeth righteousness at all times . * Remember me , O LORD , with the favour that thou bearest unto thy people : O visit me with thy salvation y @shuw #ah #; * That I may see the good of thy chosen , that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation , that I may glory with thine inheritance . * We have sinned with our fathers , we have committed iniquity , we have done wickedly . * Our fathers understood not thy wonders in Egypt ; they remembered not the multitude of thy mercies ; but provoked him at the sea , even at the Red sea . * Nevertheless he saved them for his names sake , that he might make his mighty power to be known . * He rebuked the Red sea also , and it was dried up : so he led them through the depths , as through the wilderness . * And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them , and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy . * And the waters covered their enemies : there was not one of them left . * Then believed they his words ; they sang his praise . * They soon forgat his works ma #aseh #; they waited not for his counsel : * But lusted exceedingly in the wilderness , and tempted God in the desert . * And he gave them their request sh @#elah #; but sent leanness into their soul . * They envied Moses also in the camp , and Aaron the saint of the LORD . * The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan , and covered the company of Abiram . * And a fire was kindled in their company ; the flame burned up the wicked . * They made a calf in Horeb , and worshipped the molten image . * Thus they changed their glory into the similitude of an ox that eateth grass . * They forgat God their saviour , which had done great things in Egypt ; * Wondrous works in the land of Ham , and terrible things by the Red sea . * Therefore he said that he would destroy them , had not Moses his chosen stood before him in the breach , to turn away his wrath , lest he should destroy them . * Yea , they despised the pleasant land , they believed not his word : * But murmured in their tents , and hearkened not unto the voice of the LORD . * Therefore he lifted up his hand against them , to overthrow them in the wilderness : * To overthrow their seed also among the nations , and to scatter them in the lands . * They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor Ba #al P @#owr #, and ate the sacrifices of the dead . * Thus they provoked him to anger with their inventions ma #alal #: and the plague brake in upon them . * Then stood up Phinehas , and executed judgment : and so the plague was stayed . * And that was counted unto him for righteousness unto all generations for evermore . * They angered him also at the waters of strife m @, so that it went ill with Moses for their sakes : * Because they provoked his spirit , so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips . * They did not destroy the nations , concerning whom the LORD commanded them : * But were mingled among the heathen , and learned their works ma #aseh #. * And they served their idols : which were a snare unto them . * Yea , they sacrificed their sons and their daughters unto devils , * And shed innocent blood , even the blood of their sons and of their daughters , whom they sacrificed unto the idols of Canaan K @na #an #: and the land was polluted with blood . * Thus were they defiled with their own works ma #aseh #, and went a whoring with their own inventions ma #alal #. * Therefore was the wrath of the LORD kindled against his people , insomuch that he abhorred his own inheritance . * And he gave them into the hand of the heathen ; and they that hated them ruled over them . * Their enemies also oppressed them , and they were brought into subjection under their hand . * Many times did he deliver them ; but they provoked him with their counsel , and were brought low for their iniquity . * Nevertheless he regarded their affliction , when he heard their cry : * And he remembered for them his covenant , and repented according to the multitude of his mercies . * He made them also to be pitied of all those that carried them captives . * Save us , O LORD our God , and gather us from among the heathen , to give thanks unto thy holy name , and to triumph in thy praise . * Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting to everlasting : and let all the people say , Amen . Praise ye the LORD .
